It depends on what tool I need.
If it is the standard stuff I have it already. That leaves the specialty tools. Often it is snap on or a professional tool to find some things. If I only need it for one job I can't see spending big bucks on a one time tool.
I am lucky in that there is a local tool store that sells three levels of tools. They have the cheap Chinese, mid range Indian tools, and the good that stuff locked up. I bought one set of cheap long length open end wrenches that range from 17 to 36 mm. I don't need a 32 mm open end often but it is handy on occasions. They are made in India and not professional level but more than adequate for the few times I need them.
When I needed a head temp sensor install tool I bougt a cheap Chinese socket and went after it with a Dremel.
When I needed an 11 MM crowfoot line wrench only Snap on had it.
